Daily Prayer for May 9th, 2018
Good morning, God—thank You! 🙂
Indeed, I am not perfect, as I stumble in many ways, but I press on to take hold of that for which, Christ Jesus, took hold of me. And when He, the perfect one, comes again from Heaven to rescue me/we who believe, from the coming wrath, our human imperfection will surely fade away. In Jesus name. Amen.
Ecclesiastes 7:20 New International Version (NIV)
20 Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous,
no one who does what is right and never sins.
Romans 2:1 English Standard Version (ESV)
God’s Righteous Judgment
2 Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things.
James 3:2 New International Version (NIV)
2 We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.
but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.
Philippians 3:12 New International Version (NIV)
12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
